Belive it or not maaco doesnt do a bad spray job, the biggest issue is paint falling off due to poor prep

For some reason that name sound familiar.  
Did he used to have a red F150 stepside that looked like a Lightning but wasnt?

Maybe Im totally off track thinking that was that guys name though.

If you pay for more than just a respray theyll do bodywork and prep. Ive seen cars in magazines that theyve done and they were done right.

Dont expect much if youre just paying for a $400 paint job though.

They quoted me about $3k to redo my car a few years ago and that was with all the bodywork and patching rusted areas.
